Flashgroup develops Academy, a portable VR crisis simulator for emergency services. Up to six responders train together in real time, treating virtual patients whose condition changes as the scenario unfolds and coordinating with fire and police teams working the same incident. The complete system fits in a single portable case and turns any space into a training ground in a matter of minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","\u003Ch1>VR EMS Training for Emergency Medical Teams\u003C\u002Fh1>\n\u003Ch3>Why emergency medical teams choose VR EMS training\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Mass-casualty incidents, hazmat exposure, and multi-patient triage under pressure are realities EMS crews face, yet many of these scenarios are too costly, dangerous, or logistically demanding to recreate physically on a regular basis. A large-scale drill with ten or more simulated casualties takes significant coordination to stage even once; in VR, the same scenario can be run as often as a team needs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>VR EMS training does not replace live drills. It strengthens existing training programs by expanding what teams can prepare for: crews can train mass-casualty scenarios that are hard to recreate physically, build unlimited scenarios of their own with the Scenario Creator, create consistency in training quality across every team, station, and location, and learn safely, over and over again, with errors becoming learning opportunities instead of operational risks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Research cited in the whitepaper on immersive crisis-simulation learning shows that VR learners complete training up to 4× faster than in the classroom and walk out up to 275% more confident to act (PwC enterprise study). In mass-casualty drills specifically, immersive trainees demonstrated more accurate situational awareness while experiencing less mental strain than peers trained conventionally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>What EMS teams train in Academy\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Flashgroup Academy covers the medical and operational competencies at the core of emergency medical response:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>The ABCDE victim assessment methodology\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Assessing and treating interactive patients whose condition changes over time, including loss of consciousness if it goes untreated\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Structured triage processes for mass-casualty incidents involving multiple patients\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Treatment of stab wounds, thoracic injuries, and collapsed lungs\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Realistic application of medical tools and equipment, including a medical bag and a wall-mounted first aid kit\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Team communication and coordinated decision-making under pressure\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Coordinating actions with fire and law enforcement teams working the same incident\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Command & control: commanders can escalate the incident live while EMS teams coordinate patient care with fire and police (see \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fresources\u002Fincident-commanders\">Incident Command Training\u003C\u002Fa>)\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\n\u003Ch3>Train realistic, evolving patient scenarios\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>What makes a mass-casualty scenario worth running is how the patients in it behave. Academy scenarios can include at least ten configurable casualties at once, each placed anywhere in the environment, including under or behind other objects. Patients start conscious and can lose consciousness as time passes or in response to the medical actions a trainee takes, so a scene keeps demanding fresh assessment rather than staying static.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trainees can remove a patient from the scene either by directing them to safety, which the system carries out over several minutes, or by physically dragging or carrying them out, depending on what the scenario calls for and what the moment demands.

Responders wear VR headsets and treat interactive patients whose condition changes over time, so every decision has meaningful consequences. It complements, rather than replaces, traditional live training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>How does Academy simulate patient condition?\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Patients in Academy start conscious and can lose consciousness as time passes or in response to the medical actions a trainee takes. Scenarios can include at least ten configurable casualties at once, so teams can train structured triage and prioritization across a large-scale incident rather than a single patient in isolation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>How many responders can train at the same time?\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Up to six responders can join a session using the six included headsets, and the system scales from single-patient exercises to complex mass-casualty operations, including multidisciplinary sessions with fire and police.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>Can EMS train together with fire and police?\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Yes. Academy supports multidisciplinary training in which medical, fire, and police personnel work the same virtual incident together, building shared situational understanding and coordination that is difficult to schedule as a live multi-agency exercise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Ch3>Do we need a special facility for VR EMS training?\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>No. Academy is a plug-and-train system in a portable case with a built-in computer and touchscreen. Any space can be turned into a training ground in a matter of minutes, at the station, the academy, or on-site.\u003C\u002Fp>\n",{"node":231},{"mediaItemUrl":232,"srcSet":233,"mimeType":11,"altText":12},"https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_EMS.webp","https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_EMS-216x300.webp 216w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_EMS-738x1024.webp 738w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_EMS-768x1066.webp 768w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_EMS.webp 924w",{"nodes":235},[236,244,252,255],{"id":237,"slug":238,"title":239,"image":240,"icon":21},"cG9zdDo1OTU=","fire-rescue","Fire & Rescue",{"node":241},{"mediaItemUrl":242,"srcSet":243,"mimeType":11,"altText":12},"https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Fire-and-rescue.webp","https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Fire-and-rescue-217x300.webp 217w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Fire-and-rescue-740x1024.webp 740w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Fire-and-rescue-768x1063.webp 768w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Fire-and-rescue.webp 926w",{"id":245,"slug":246,"title":247,"image":248,"icon":21},"cG9zdDo3NTQ=","law-enforcement","Law Enforcement",{"node":249},{"mediaItemUrl":250,"srcSet":251,"mimeType":11,"altText":12},"https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Law-Enforcement.webp","https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Law-Enforcement-217x300.webp 217w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Law-Enforcement-740x1024.webp 740w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Law-Enforcement-768x1063.webp 768w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Law-Enforcement.webp 926w",{"id":225,"slug":226,"title":227,"image":253,"icon":21},{"node":254},{"mediaItemUrl":232,"srcSet":233,"mimeType":11,"altText":12},{"id":256,"slug":257,"title":258,"image":259,"icon":21},"cG9zdDo3NTc=","workplace-first-aid-training-in-realistic-vr-scenarios","Workplace Health & Safety",{"node":260},{"mediaItemUrl":261,"srcSet":262,"mimeType":11,"altText":12},"https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Workplace-Safety.webp","https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Workplace-Safety-216x300.webp 216w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Workplace-Safety-738x1024.webp 738w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Workplace-Safety-768x1066.webp 768w, https:\u002F\u002Fcms.flashgroupxr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002FCard_Who-we-serve_Workplace-Safety.webp 924w",{"debug":264,"graphqlSmartCache":268},[265],{"type":266,"message":267},"DEBUG_LOGS_INACTIVE","GraphQL Debug logging is not active.
